Fabrication and Characterization of Polyvinyl Alcohol-Based Composite Containing Titanium Dioxide and Zeolite Nanoparticles via Electrospinning for Enhancing Strawberry Shelf Life
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Bagheri, Reza (Supervisor)
Abstract
Electrospinning, as an advanced method for producing nanofibers, is rapidly evolving due to its simplicity, flexibility, low cost, and scalability. This technique enables the production of porous structures with a high surface-to-volume ratio, making it applicable in various fields such as food packaging, medicine, and air purification. In this study, multifunctional nanofibrous mats composed of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) loaded with titania and zeolite nanoparticles were successfully synthesized and evaluated. Initially, titania nanoparticles were synthesized, and the formation of anatase and brookite phases was confirmed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction...
